Las Vegas Poker Run

[pokerlocal]

I am headin out to Vegas for a couple of weeks to make a run at some of the tourneys and will be posting hands and experiences for comment and discussion. Successful cash game play and a mid size book have allowed me this opportunity. Look forward to my first tourney at the Venetian on Sunday, June 14th at noon. $250K guarantee.

Tell us the story. We like Stories, many of us also banned...from somewhere and some multiple places.

Sounds as though It'd be a good story.

Partied at Drais Night Club last 4th of July a little too hard and went to play some BlackJack but was told I was too drunk to play. I got quite upset because the week before I had asked the floor at the Rio to limit my marker at the Bacarrat table to 5K on two separate nights and they allowed me to take out nearly 20K after I asked for the limit and was also visibly not able to make good decisions!! I am not sure what really happened this night and they still won't tell me. I just remember being really upset...arguing with the floor person and then woke up the next morning in a cell at LVPD. Not the best 4th in my book!

Sounds like at least they didn't take you to Clarke County Jail, "LVPD" suggesting they just put you in Station Holding Cell. If so, that was merciful. Can take a bit of time/doing to process outta Clarke County Jail.

Finally made it to the poker tables today. Playing a little 2/5 NL cash game. Poker room is packed and the tourney I am going to play tomorrow drew 183 players in flight A so the 250K guarantee should be met without a problem!

Rough start to the cash game today. Can't hit a flop if I got to choose my whole cards after the flop!

 

[pokerlocal]

Here we goooooo! 30 minutes til the first tourney of the summer. Hopefully all my run bad is already out of the way and I can score a big run here!

 

[pokerlocal]

Off to a good start...winning first hand four way with 7 3!

[pokerlocal]

First one bites the dust...straight flush draw doesn't get there against top top.

 

[pokerlocal]

Just had my JJ cracked by Q8 hearts. I flop open ended Q 10 9 two spades. I C bet both called. Turn 10 hearts. Guy to my right bets out. I fold and third guy calls. River K hearts. Very next hand I pick up QQ and run into KK...fml
